The Great Explorer

Audiobook samples:

The Swerve by Stephen Greenblatt

"The greatest obstacle to pleasure is not pain; it is delusion.”

The Wide Wide Sea by Hampton Sides

"It was blind guesswork, with the highest possible stakes."

"I believe that he who learns only how to obey orders can never be a great explorer."

“He needed to immersed in a project, an enterprise, a puzzle. Action was life to him, and repose a sort of death."
